Treatment – Robotic And Laparoscopic Surgery

What Is Robotic And Laparoscopic Surgery?

Robotic and laparoscopic surgery are advanced minimally invasive surgical techniques used to treat a wide range of colorectal conditions. These procedures involve small incisions, specialized instruments, and high-precision technology, allowing for quicker recovery, reduced pain, and minimal scarring compared to traditional open surgery.

Laparoscopic Surgery

Laparoscopic surgery, also known as keyhole surgery, involves making small incisions through which a camera and surgical instruments are inserted. The surgeon views a magnified image on a screen and performs the procedure with precision.

Robotic-Assisted Surgery

Robotic-assisted surgery enhances laparoscopic techniques by providing superior dexterity and precision. The surgeon operates robotic arms from a console, allowing for greater control, stability, and access to difficult-to-reach areas.

Symptoms That May Require Robotic And Laparoscopic Surgery

If you experience any of the following symptoms, a consultation with a specialist may be necessary

Persistent abdominal pain or bloating
Blood in stool or rectal bleeding
Unexplained weight loss
Chronic constipation or diarrhea
Hernia bulging or discomfort
Severe haemorrhoids causing pain or bleeding

If you experience any of these symptoms, it’s important to consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation.
